Beverly EngelComedy is an intellectual affair, and deals chiefly with logic. Tragedy is an emotional affair, and deals chiefly with value. Horace Walpole once said that "life is a comedy to the man who thinks and a tragedy to the man who feels." Comedy is negative; it is a criticism of limitations and an unwillingness to accept them. Tragedy is positive; it is an uncritical acceptance of the positive content of that which is delimited.

Phil HardingThe sociopath wants the person to be easily enough fooled to stick with him. This can be accomplished by looking for someone who is very, very loyal.

You will ask this a dozen times and drive the person nuts. But you never ask: are you really mad at me? Are you sure youโre angry? When someone is angry, you donโt doubt it for a moment. Yet the reverse should be true. We should doubt the negative in life, and have faith in the positive.
